One is the alternator belt while the other is the A/C belt.

The diagram shows the alternator belt routing. Loosen the tensioner pulley holding nut and loosen the adjuster to release the belt tension for removal. Similar work is done on the A/C belt tensioner. After installation of the new belt, use the adjuster to adjust the tension of the belt before retightening the holding nut.
